>> well, president obama has repeatedly demonstrated during his four years in office that he's reached across the aisle, tried to work with republicans. he's had some success, particularly when he's gone out on the road and taken his case to the american people. that's how we essentially shame the republicans in congress into extending the payroll tax cut, which would have taken $1,000 out of the paychecks of middle class americans. it's how we prevented the tuition loan interest rate from doubling. this is a combination of making sure that we have people on the other side of the aisle willing to sit down with the president and work together to solve our deficit issues to continue to get our economy turned around and securing the american people's help to put pressure on the republican members of congress who seem only focused on one job, barack obama's. >> all right. debbi wasserman shultz, chairwoman of the democratic national committee. thanks for being on this morning. >> thanks, chuck. >>> the monthly auto sales numbers come out today. since the markets are just opening, let's get

it's only these years right here. that's it. now, by definition, you never have an incumbent president in this situation more than once. presidents can only serve two terms so there's only one opportunity when they carry into that debate, when they're running for re-election, they carry into that debate the gravitas of being the president of the united states facing off against some non-president who wants their job. that only happens once per president. and these are the only times that has happened on tv in our nation's history. that's it. and this is the situation that president obama found himself in last night. it's only happened six other times in american history. so how did he do in historical context? there isn't that much historical context, right? like, this is a very knowable thing. honestly, that first one, that first one in 1976 where incumbent president gerald ford faced off against challenger jimmy carter, honestly, this one shouldn't even really count as part of the context like the rest of them because this one

we were also a big contribute to republicans four years ago and to democrats this year. i think it's certainly been a shift. there's been a disappointment owing to some of the things that have been described and working together. you know, risk taking is not just the risk we take and not just financial risk. the environment has gotten such a got you environment that even the politicians themselves and regulators have to do their business with one eye over the shoulders for fear of being dragged into some congressional committee or they'll be exposed for having to talk to leaders. so i think this idea of working together, i think in order to allow people to work together, there has to be a little bit of a letup. another thing is you can't kill people if everything doesn't work out perfectly. who the heck is going to take the jobs in business and government. you'll always get people that want to be ceo and senator and cabinet secretaries, but it might not be the people you want if you make it so punishing for them to take the job and unsustainable to be in the job because

so do you approve or disapprove of barack obama's handling of the economy over the last year? a quarter, nearly a quarter of undecided voters will say that they don't know. they cannot even say they approve or disapprove of the way the president's handled the economy. and the most important thing is that the number of people who will say that among deded voters is much lower, it's about 4%. so they're not engaged. >> so then, i guess of the people who some of whom are not engaged, will they ultimately make up their minds? is this as i like to call it a game time decision once they get to that voting booth? how does this work on november 6th for them? >> well, another common myth is they're all independents. we use those two words synonymously, independent and undecided. not true. a lot of them have party identifications. so just like everyone else at the end of the day they're going to vote their party. beyond that many of them will stay home. but the rest of them will pay a lot of attention to how this race is trending in the last couple of days. >> so they will pay attention
